Dude, you get me so much…
Korra is an inferior Avatar to Aang on so many levels. Like you said – zero character development. I felt like she just got her way all the time. Plus, the romantic subplots basically became main plots, and she was super mean to What’s-His-Name for virtually no reason, telling him how much of a boring boyfriend he was. Some of the villains of the show were interesting (especially the bloodbending one), but I was never rooting for the heroes.
Yep, that was Legend of Korra. I definitely recommend The Last Airbender instead. It might take a few episodes to get into, but honestly I wasn’t a fan of the animation either until I got used to it. Now it’s my favorite animé show ever, and I usually HATE animé.
Lol XD I can’t imagine writing that crazy of a fanfic. My brain would explode.

February 20, 2023 at 4:09 pm #133879February 20, 2023 at 4:15 pm #133884Yes! And I’m really hoping that the new wave of Avatar stuff is actually good, us fans have been disappointed too many times with any expansions of the universe.
It’s good from start to finish, but if your unsure, keep watching until you get to episode 12, the storm.
He is perfect in Justice, yet He is perfect in Mercy, even when we fail Him. For this, He is good.
February 20, 2023 at 4:19 pm #133887Well kinda, I think that’s definitely often the case with low budget stuff. But esspecially within the past decade, and 2020’s even more so, mainstream companies like Disney are throwing money at everything, hoping for some stuff to stick, but it doesn’t often. It’s just turned into a money machine with no care for the fans and good writing.

February 20, 2023 at 4:22 pm #133888@whalekeeper @thearcaneaxiom Yeah…. Though the world building is cool, it didn’t seem like my thing. BUT I will keep those ideas in mind….if I find a spot in my fanfics for an exceptionally good charrie, they may just became the progenitor of a whole dragon species, lol.
And yes, big companies are kinda doing “great animation, trashy story” lately. Although I have enjoyed some of the recent stuff, other times it’s like “really??? no! that’s terrible.”
oh, and one other thing: in terms of shows/movies, I can’t have another obsession….the ones I have now have messed with my head enough already.
Where'd I get ya this time? The liver? The kidney? I'm runnin' outta places to put holes in ya.
February 20, 2023 at 4:23 pm #133889If that last bit sounded rude I completely apologize.

February 20, 2023 at 4:34 pm #133890Nah it’s okay 😊 Once you ‘get over’ your current obsessions, then it makes sense to look into recommendations. I thought I wasn’t going to find any more cool fantasy book series, and yet I just did, a few weeks back.
So it’s never like you have to ‘get into’ anything else right now

@mineralizedwritings. Here you go!!!! 💕💕💕💕 (Fair warning, though, it’s not finished! 😂)
He couldn’t get up.
He wanted to get up, but his head…his injuries…his sickness wouldn’t let him.
The door to the bedroom opened, and Leo groaned, burying his face in his pillow.
He didn’t want someone else to tell him that everything was going to be okay. He was tired of empty comfort. He was tired of people trying to cheer him on when his entire world was falling apart.
“Hey, champion, how are you doing this morning?”
Leo slowly uncovered his face to look at his younger brother. “I’m fine, Joshua.”
“Nothing more than fine? I know you’re injured and sick, but-“
“I’m fine, Joshua.” Leo retorted.
Joshua smiled softly and sat on the edge of the bed, brushing a strand of dark brown wavy hair off of Leo’s forehead. “If you say so.”
Leo sighed and set his pillow aside.
Sure, he felt horrible inside and out, but it wasn’t an excuse to treat everyone else poorly. “I’m sorry, Joshua…I-I didn’t mean for that to-“
“It’s okay…I understand, Leo, trust me.”
Leo nodded. His throat stung and his stomach churned, but what were they compared to everything his brothers had been through recently?
“Hey, all these things that have happened…it’s not your fault.” Joshua whispered, as if he had read Leo’s thoughts.
“It is…I’m the one who’s kept all of you out past curfew…I’m the reason all of you have been beaten…”
“You’ve been beaten too recently, much harder and harsher than the rest of us, I may add, and also, Leo, it’s not your fault…you can’t protect us from everything. You’re only one man.”
“Still. I could do a whole lot better.”
“Leo…”
Leo shook his head. “No, don’t try to convince me otherwise. I’ve failed you…I’ve failed all of you.”
“No, Leo, you haven’t…you haven’t failed any of us.”
Leo closed his eyes, unable to believe the words his brother spoke.
It was just too hard.
With everything that had happened…everything that had happened to his younger brothers…how could he not be the one to blame?
“And think of all the people we’ve been able to help by staying out late doing our work…”
Leo’s eyes slowly opened, and Joshua offered him a small smile.
Leo shrugged. “Still…I’m the oldest brother…I should be able to protect all of you…”
February 20, 2023 at 7:35 pm #133925Yeah, no worries! I can respect that, I just hope that you can give it a chance eventually when you have the time, sorry if I come off rude in any way. This is simply something very unique in quality, and it’s hard to stress that properly.
He is perfect in Justice, yet He is perfect in Mercy, even when we fail Him. For this, He is good.

February 20, 2023 at 11:45 pm #133958I once found most of the show (the Last Airbender) on YouTube before, so you could check there.
I just looked into it, and it looks like you can find half of season 1, but everything else looks pretty sketchy on youtube. Do you know a particular channel that might have it?
I remember that I was watching season three, but any other details my memory has forgotten, as it has been years since I did that.
HTTYD is awesome! I just got together with some friends and marathoned the movies today… oh, the emotion. Help.
We're all stories in the end. Just make it a good on, eh?
